Demodulator Specifications
IF Input Range
P300: -45dBm nominal, ±15dB (desired carrier)
P310: -20 to -70dBm (desired carrier)
Maximum Composite Signal
P300: 30dB above level of desired input up to a maximum of 0dBm
P310: 35dB above level of desired input up to a maximum of -10dBm
Frequency Acquisition
Selectable from ± 1 kHz to ± 32 kHz
Range
Acquisition Threshold
< 5dB Eb/No
Acquisition Time
@ 9.6 kbps < 3 seconds at 6dB Eb/No
(rate ½ FEC)
@ 64 kbps < 2 seconds at 6dB Eb/No
@ 2048 kbps < 500 ms at 6dB Eb/No
Clock Tracking Range
± 100 ppm min
Receive Filtering
6th order Butterworth, group delay equalised (INTELSAT IESS compliant)
BER Performance
In all cases met in the presence of two adjacent carriers each 10dB
higher than the desired carrier, with V.35 scrambling
These figures meet or exceed the relevant IESS performance
specifications.
